Blue Strawberry and Table Talk strengthens team

London catering and event design company Blue Strawberry and sister company Table Talk have made three new appointments.

Emily Benneworth and Anna Wills (pictured) have been appointed as event managers, while Will Silva takes on the role of junior sous chef.

Benneworth joins from Gaucho at the O2 where she managed the venue hire for both internal and external events including VIP hospitality for Take That, Fleetwood Mac and Mariah Carey.

She also has experience working at London's ExCeL Centre working on a number of events such as World Travel Market, Salesforce World Tour London, Miss World Final, Britain's Got Talent, LinkedIn Talent Connect and the UK Customer Service Awards.

Wills, who was previously employed by Mustard Catering, has worked at several venues for luxury brands as well as corporate and private clients. Notable events include a dinner at the V&A for 250 people, a charity auction reception and dinner for 200 people at Bridgewater House and the BFI London Film Festival at Old Billingsgate for 600 people.

Meanwhile, Silva previously worked at some of London's high-profile restaurants including Fera at Claridgeís and the Whitechapel Gallery.

The new appointments represent another stage of development for the Blue Strawberry and Table Talk team as it continues to grow, having added six members to the team in just seven months.

Stuart Jenkins, managing director, said: "We are thrilled with the new talent that has been added to our team. The reinvestment into the company will enable the business to enhance its offering and provide customers with an experience that is unrivalled."
